According to sources quoted by the media, tensions between the two giants have increased in recent months, to the point that Brin ordered his financial advisors to sell his personal investments in Musk’s companies.

According to the newspaper, Bryn and Shanahan were separated for a year, but were living together when the alleged “affair,” which took place in early December, took place.

In recent months, Musk has attracted media attention not only for his business at the helm of Tesla or the aerospace company SpaceX, but also for his extravagant social media messages, Twitter buying spree that has, for the time being, ended in court, and for their romantic relationships.
